Upload requirements

There are a few restrictions in uploading to this site. The easiest way to tell if you can upload an image check out the list below. This site can also use images on Wikimedia Commons, and Flickr so we recommend using them because they can handle larger files, have a faster connections, and can share the image more widely. Commons has a category dedicated to die images. See: Commons' Category:Integrated_circuit_dies
